Good stuff man. I just made mine today!

The cobs are huge, get the 1/8th aluminum if you can cut it. Feels great

My friend had an electric hand saw. You can use a hack saw but make sure it has the right teeth.

I think lowes actually cuts them. I went to Home Depot and they didn't.

949 that's chill , close by

Yea, we can wear name tags.... "Hi my name is 714steadyeddie"

A socail would be cool. I bet I have 100 members living within 20 miles of me.

I'm just wondering about two things... We are running the 1400 ma drivers.. I thought I would be receiving a 2100.. when I tested my wattage from the wall it was 183 watts. I was just under the impression we would be getting a full 200 watts... Not that it's a big deal..

Also, I thought I was getting 3500 kelvin. My box reads 3000k. I see yours says the same. Is it just a typo or do we have 3000k?

valid questions. you should ask timber. I received wrong cobs once from another vendor and got replacements sent. If thats the case, you'll have extra cobs

Hi @sunny747

Thank you for the post - I am unsure what happened with respect to your order but would be happy to make it correct. Send me an email at [email protected] or give me a call at 866-892-5364 and I'll make sure the correct part(s) are sent out ASAP.

When using the fixture without the dimmer, you will realize the true power supply output which in this case should be 200-220 Watts. Disconnect the potentiometer harness whenever not in use and it will automatically give you a power boost.

Best Regards,
Dan

Thanks Dan.. No problem.. I appreciate the support. I sent you an email about it.

Yea, I was thinking it might be the Pedometer..

I could probably be happy with the 3k's.. I was just more curious aboout it.

Thanks so much!

Hey sunny! So for your 2x2 you are just running the two Vero 29's?

 

[nevergoodenuf]

@sunny747 stick with the 3000k. I am getting a little better results with them than the 3500k.

Hey sunny! So for your 2x2 you are just running the two Vero 29's?

Yes... I don't have them in the tent yet, but yes, this is more than enough light I believe... Vero 29 v7 with the 1400 driver. I'm just estimating, but it's probably more than 1000 ppfd.

Talk to @RainDan.. He can hook you up..
